doc: Move "About" content from index.rst to a new chapter
The index.rst page is now the primary landing page for the TF-A documentation. It contains quite a lot of content these days, including: - The project purpose and general intro - A list of functionality - A list of planned functionality - A list of supported platforms - "Getting started" links to other documents - Contact information for raising issues This patch creates an "About" chapter in the table of contents and moves some content there. In order, the above listed content: - Stayed where it is. This is the right place for it. - Moved to About->Features - Moved to About->Features (in subsection) - Stayed where it is. Moved in a later patch. - Was expanded in-place - Moved to About->Contact Change-Id: I254bb87560fd09140b9e485cf15246892aa45943 Signed-off-by: Paul Beesley <paul.beesley@arm.com>

-Release Processes
-=================
-
-Project Release Cadence
------------------------
-
-The project currently aims to do a release once every 6 months which will be
-tagged on the master branch. There will be a code freeze (stop merging
-non-essential PRs) up to 4 weeks prior to the target release date. The release
-candidates will start appearing after this and only bug fixes or updates
-required for the release will be merged. The maintainers are free to use their
-judgement on what PRs are essential for the release. A release branch may be
-created after code freeze if there are significant PRs that need merging onto
-the integration branch during the merge window.
-
-The release testing will be performed on release candidates and depending on
-issues found, additional release candidates may be created to fix the issues.
